    Thanks.

    Expensive score but unicorns unless you win the picker's lottery never come cheap.

    1946 Gillette Aristocrat w/Bic Chrome Platinum blade.

    Razor I haven't used in awhile. Interesting razor in that no one really knew what it was. It turns out this is a rebranded Regent Tech with end caps sold only in possibly late 45 and no later then early 1946. I know they are the same razor since I've owned both and have shaved them together and compared the blade gaps on each. This was superceded by the more common 46 - 48 Aristocrat model in 46. Mild shave and result is just short of a BBS finish for me.

    Bet it was a lot cheaper than a bottom dial.

    Yep that is I want it and I am not going to let anyone else buy it price. If you are net ahead on money spent on collecting it is a win at any price.
